Equipe Adds MPLS LSR Functionality to its E3200 Platform

Equipe Communications released a software upgrade that adds MPLS LSR functionality to the native ATM switching and ATM/MPLS Interworking support of its E3200 platform. Equipe said having all three functionalities in a single platform is the key for making an MPLS core a reality for incumbent Layer 2 service providers. Unlike router-based implementations of MPLS, the Equipe 3200 offers the ability to Interwork ATM and MPLS or switch both in their native formats; provide per-connection traffic guarantees and operational visibility for all traffic types; ensure high-availability of the software, with non-stop routing and forwarding of ATM and MPLS services; and provide the virtual circuit and LSP scalability for a connection-oriented core network.
